The atmospheric wine festival in Franconia
The Abtswind Wine Festival is among the best-known and most atmospheric wine festivals in Franconia. It is organized by the Fremdenverkehrs- und Heimatverein Abtswind e.V. (Tourism and Heritage Association) in the wine village of the same name at the foot of the Steigerwald in the Lower Franconian district of Kitzingen, Bavaria – one of Franconia's most traditional wine-growing regions.
The festival traditionally takes place on all Saturdays in October in a heated marquee. This allows you to enjoy Franconian wine culture comfortably even during the cooler season. Selected wines, excellent cuisine, and proven organization ensure a thoroughly successful festival experience.
A hallmark of the festival: A different musical group provides entertainment each festival Saturday – from mood music to party sounds. Over the five festival Saturdays, the event can welcome several thousand guests, making it one of the largest wine festivals in the region.
The Abtswind Wine Festival is a prime example of the vibrant wine culture of the Steigerwald and a convivial autumn meeting point for wine lovers from all over Franconia.

The opening will take place on Saturday, October 3, 2026, from 5 PM, with »Weinfest Vibes mit DJ Wiesel«.
